Hudson resurrects Chew Man Fu for VC and mobile phones

If the last update on the Virtual Console made you nostalgic and wax poetic, this next one will definitely turn you upside down. Hudson Entertainment is happy to announce that it will be bringing back the TurboGrafx original Chew Man Fu to VC and mobile phones.

If you are not familiar with the action/puzzle game developed by Hudson Soft and published by NEC for the TurboGrafx-16, the title of the game is also the name of the game’s evil dude. Apparently, Mr. Chew Man Fu set a curse to rob the world of fried rice, egg rolls, and all other delicious food. The player’s objective is to stop him by rolling 4 magic spheres onto tiles that match the spheres’ color.

Take note that each color represents a unique property which is vital to solving the puzzle. Hudson Entertainment promised that the new version is faithful to the the original one. President John Greiner was quite happy and nostalgic about the whole thing:

Chew Man Fu represents an era of gameplay during which Hudson established itself as a creator of fun games that were easy to pick up and play. With such a fantastic catalog of games released over the last 30 years, Hudson is in a great position to bring back some of these classics to a whole new generation of gamers.

Hudson still has to announce the official European Virtual Console release date for this game. The game  was released on the Japanese Virtual Console last February 13. Sorry, we couldn’t find anything about the North American release.
